Grendel’s body was crushed into powder by Rias’s ultimate move, Ruin’s Comet and his remaining head turned into flying ashes in the explosion just now. What manifested in the air was only his soul shadow.
“Heh, you really are lucky, Red Dragon Emperor. Even like this, you still can’t be killed by a blast.”
“This battle ends here. My body is broken again. I’m not going to play with you all today.”
“Ah, that big dumb dragon is trying to escape!”
Seeing Grendel intending to flee, the girls’ expressions changed slightly.
With Valerie’s Holy Grail in Rizevim’s hands, Grendel could simply go back and exchange for a new body, undoing the hard-won victory.
“Hmph, do you think you can escape?!”
With a cold snort, Tenraku naturally wouldn’t let Grendel succeed. He waved his hand and shot a jade jewel towards Grendel.
“What is this?!”
“Aaaaaahhh…”
The jade jewel emitted a huge suction force, instantly sucking Grendel’s soul into it, then flying back into Tenraku’s hand.
“Tenraku, what happened?”
“I have sealed Grendel’s soul in the jade jewel. He won’t be able to revive anymore.”
Tenraku explained to the girls, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. They didn’t want to encounter such a crazy guy again.
“Rias, Tenraku, there’s a communication coming from Grandma. The new transmission formation has been established.”
A small communication magic unfolded in her ears, and Rossweisse, who received the message from her grandmother, said.
“Great, let Lady Göndul and the others start the transmission immediately.”
“Okay.”
Rias quickly responded, and Rossweisse also nodded and contacted her grandmother.
Tenraku and the other girls also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they could transport the parents, children, and residents from the underground shelter and the town, the battle could almost be over.
Although Ladon’s barrier still covered Auros Town and Agreas, it wasn’t difficult for them to leave here if they wanted to.
The mages in the underground shelter seemed to be moving as well. Bright light began to emanate from the direction of Auros Academy, and then a huge magic array unfolded, continuously expanding to cover the entire campus.
However, to Tenraku and the girls’ surprise, after the magic array was deployed, there was no movement, and the transfer had not begun.
“Something seems wrong. Something might be happening down there.”
Sitri Sona said, and the others had already sensed it.
And just then, a bright light suddenly appeared on the magic array and then shot out a beam of light toward Agreas in the distance.
Under the stunned gaze of Tenraku and the girls, when the light beam reached the floating island of Agreas, the entire floating island disappeared!
“Hehehehe!”
“You fell for it, didn’t you?!”
“Hehehehe!”
Rizevim’s figure appeared in the sky, laughing triumphantly while holding his cloak.
Tenraku and the girls couldn’t help but feel dark inside. At this moment, they realized that they had been completely deceived!
“Rizevim, your goal from the beginning was Agreas itself, wasn’t it? Everything else you did was just to distract us!”
Tenraku said in a low voice.
“That’s right, Red Dragon Emperor sauce. Otherwise, why would I give you three hours?”
“There’s something super interesting on this floating island of Agreas that I’ve always wanted to take for myself. But it’s impossible to snatch away such a big floating island directly. So I thought, if I could get the mages to create a new type of teleportation magic that could teleport the entire Agreas away, that would be perfect.”
“Of course, the mage who proposed this idea before is our comrade. He did a great job in completing the work. He proposed creating a new teleportation magic and then changed the settings at the last minute to set the destination as Agreas. Everything went perfectly according to plan!”
“Hehehehe!”
Speaking of his success, Rizevim laughed again.
Tenraku and Rias’s girls couldn’t help but look grim. They had been completely manipulated!
“Although it’s a pity that Ladon and Grendel were taken out, and it’s a shame that you caught Walburga, as long as we have the Holy Grail, there are plenty of those guys in hell who can be resurrected. Oh, right, Red Dragon Emperor, do you think I’m telling you all this just to show off?”
“Of course, there’s also an element of showing off, seeing your annoyed faces is really great. But my real purpose is—”
“To attract your attention!”
With a smirk on his face, Rizevim suddenly disappeared from the sky.
Just then—
“Aaahhhhh!” Asia screamed. Tenraku and the others quickly looked over, only to see Euclid appearing out of nowhere and grabbing Asia!
“Asia!”
“Senior Asia!”
“Don’t move, or I won’t mind crushing her neck,” Euclid said coldly, manifesting a replica of the Red Dragon Emperor’s gauntlet and squeezing Asia’s neck.
As Tenraku and the others were about to rush over, Euclid sneered, “Oops, I got the wrong one, we wanted the Valkyrie, not this little Saintess.”
Rizevim shouted from above, “That Valkyrie is strong. Even with a surprise attack, it’s not certain we could catch her.”
“But capturing this Saintess San is much simpler. These guys value their companions’ feelings the most. As long as we threaten this Saintess San, they’ll obey.”
“I see, I see. Well done, Euclid,” Rizevim said with satisfaction.
“I will leave the rest to you. I’m withdrawing for now. Remember to bring that Valkyrie back,” Rizevim instructed before disappearing from above the canopy.
“Euclid, release Asia.” Tenraku stared at Euclid with a chilling gaze.
“What a terrifying killing intent, but do you think I’m scared, Red Dragon Emperor?!”
With a sneer, Euclid tightened his grip on Asia’s neck, and Asia showed a painful expression.
“Asia!”
“You bastard, how dare you threaten us with Asia!”
“Let go of Asia right now, or we won’t spare you! Absolutely not!”
Seeing Asia’s painful appearance, Xenovia and Illya’s girls were also furious, and anxious, but at this moment, they didn’t dare to act recklessly while Asia was in the opponent’s hands.
Taking a deep breath, Tenraku’s eyes flashed with a cold light—
“State your conditions, Euclid.”
